# Beatriz Enríquez de Arana

> Beatriz Enríquez de Arana (1465–1521?) was the mother of Ferdinand Columbus, Christopher Columbus's younger son. The nature of her relationship to Christopher Columbus has been a subject of dispute amongst historians. Some evidence suggests that she was the second wife to Columbus. Other evidence suggests that Beatriz was the mistress of Columbus. Columbus himself referred to Beatriz as his wife, and social conventions at the time would likely have prevented Ferdinand Columbus from receiving his royal appointment to the court of Spain if he were illegitimate. The Columbus family tree lists Ferdinand and Diego Columbus, Columbus's son from his first marriage, on the same branch, whereas illegitimate children are found to be separated in other parts of the tree.
